Fixed and loose fittings used for the reliable securing of containers.
- Fixed fittings – Stacking cones, foundations, deck foundations, lashing plates, lashing eyes, lashing pots, d-rings. Fixed fittings are integrated into the hull structure or fitted on double bottom or hatch covers.
- Loose fittings – Twistlocks, stackers, bridge fittings, tension/pressure elements, spanners, lashing rods and turnbuckles.
Open turnbuckles combined with multi knob rods are used to secure containers of different heights with one rod length. For rapid adjustment and safe connection the turnbuckle is equipped with a slide nut. 50t breaking load systems are used almost exclusively (26mm rod diameter).
